    Caprese avo toast with fried egg

    Food was great - service was top notch & it was a perfect brunch spot! Only thing missing was pancakes. Charming location!

    Scrapple
    Chris D.

    I really wanted to love this place more. Everything looked great but my food felt like it was lacking some flavor. I got the country fried streak and felt under seasoned. My wife and kids though loved their selections. My wife and daughter shared the waffle board and my son loved his chicken salad sandwich. The scrapple was nice and crispy. Overall, it was a fairly enjoyable breakfast.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Beautiful Wednesday morning not too crowded[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], great service, delicious pastry and matcha latte. My favorite was to spend a day off after a walk on the beach

    Belgian Waffle Monte Cristo!!  Amazing!!
    Nina R.

    I was at Lewes Beach for the weekend and we came here to Dewey Beach for Sunday brunch. I ordered the Monte Cristo Belgian Waffle sandwich that came with home fries and hot coffee. The Waffle sandwich was made to perfection with little crystals of sugar cooked into the waffles, warm syrup on the side with ham and cheese on the inside. Super indulgent. I had to take half to go and ate it later. Yummmy!Yummy!! They were attentive and I really felt taken care of. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is cozy, well lit, very popular place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend for brunch!

    Sausage Gravy
    Matthew U.

    It's really amazing that I never made it to this place in all the years I have visited. It was right there the whole time, like right next door to the hotel I was staying at. It was just there. Most likely the reason I never got here was the fact that they are open for only breakfast, brunch, and lunch. I'm not a big fan of being up and functioning at that time, let alone eating. However, my friends made sure to get me here on my last visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The Dewey Post is quaint. It has so much charm to it. During the warmer months you have the opportunity to eat outside on either the deck or sidewalk. Or, if you wish, you can dine inside, if you do, it feels like you are in the dining room of a very welcoming home.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]To get to your seats you will have to pass by the display case where there are multiple pastries on display that will undoubtedly temp you to ruin your meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Once I got to the table my friends were at I had a menu in hand and was looking it over. There were tons of recommendations from everyone at the table, especially since they have come before. I kept going back and forth on a few items, while I was still mulling it over I did place my drink order. I wanted sweet tea, when I had asked, they told me they don't have it on the menu, but they could put some simple syrup in their iced tea. That worked just fine for me, didn't taste too bad either. I also asked for some water. I finally decided on what to get and I went with the Sausage Gravy. This was so delicious that it had me nearly licking my plate. Not sure how they make their gravy, but it was very tasty and made me want more. But I don't think that this should be overshadowing the base of the plate. That buttermilk biscuit situated underneath it all. With each bite I took, I made sure that scooped up more and more of that gravy. making sure each bite almost was covered in it. What I liked most about it was the size of the chucks of sausage within the gravy. This is a comfort food and it definitely brought me comfort. It made me sleepy and that wasn't so bad since I just had to go back right next door.

    Local hot sauce. Not too hot, great flavor.

    Delicious & different. Friendly, hospitable staff. Very personable server. A must for breakfast or brunch.

    Breakfast burrito with scrap & eggs - meh! Perhaps sausages would be better.
    sarah l.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very popular restaurant![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We waited almost an hour for a table! My chicken salad with bacon on a croissant was delicious! Will definitely order again! My friend's breakfast burrito with scrap & eggs was unfortunately not so good. We both ordered cold brew coffee and liked it! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is a nice bayside beach and marina nearby. Lovely![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I will have to come back to try out the food as it seems this location gets high marks. But as for the smoothies, I would pass. They're very very sweet, more ice and fruit mixed with not a whole lot of flavor.

    The syrup and waffles with fruit were great, and the service was top-notch. I recommend this place for breakfast or brunch.
